The BEST movie theater I have ever been to! There is a balcony overlooking the city square below, free parking, a spacious area to eat and relax, craft cocktails, very good food, excellent (!!) staff, and the chairs are huge and they recline! Plan your trip in advance as tickets sell out and the theaters are small! There is also assigned seating - at least for the theater I was it!
Elegant. Free parking. Food smells good. (Didn't eat.) Craft cocktails (!) Intimate theatres. Quality independent films. Yessssss......it makes a movie a "Real Date."
Ask for Odin in the restaurant / bar. Excellent service. He made sure I wasn't double-charged for a drink AND watched to make sure we got into our movie on time.
The VC has 4 hr parking validation, a nice bar area with whole foods style snacks, and first run movies from the foreign slash indie side. tickets are pricey, so I only see first showing during the week. most films here also play at regal arbor art house, but that's a long drive from center city. the screens are very small be aware of that. some films demand to be seen on a big screen, so for those I see at regal arbor great hills or santikos bijou in San Antonio. for dialogue and plot driven fare, the NYC style small screen... read more
My favorite Austin theater! Yes, even more than the Drafhouse. Small theaters, great movies, good food, great beer and cocktail options. It's basically heaven for a cinephile like me! And - since this is often a problem in downtown - they validate parking for three hours if you park in the AMLI's parking lot!
Thanks Andy for being a great help. You're a gentleman. A quaint theater complex with unique films. Cool environment, intimate. Great seating. All reserved. Buy early!
Intimate atmosphere to see a movie. I thought the drinks were a little overpriced and if you get there early, you can't wait in your theatre - they call you about 5-10 minutes before the previews start to take your seat. This is not a full service place like the Alamo Drafthouses, but you order food and bring it in.
Where does one go when it's raining cats and dogs in Austin? violet theater! How cool is it to be in a theater that serves great food and alcohol? ot to mention the intimate and comfortable screening rooms. Great locations. Free covered parking. can't ask for any more!
We went to see a movie here after comparing times at Alamo Drafthouse and deciding this would be more convenient. It was a great decision! We arrived early enough to get a drink and sit on the patio outdoors (after a string of storms, the evening was perfect). The Violet Beauregarde was a delicious choice and perfect to enjoy right before seeing a movie. The patio itself was great too - there weren't too many chairs, so I could understand how it might get crowded, but we must have just picked the perfect night. The staff we... read more
